I’m trying to confirm and (if needed) change the geometric units used in the Flux modeler.

Cayden

In Flux Supervisor my project is set up with metres as the base unit in the Units Manager. However, inside the Flux modeler environment, when I define a point at (0.15, 0, 0.05), the tooltip shows (150e-6, 0, 50e-6), which suggests my geometry is interpreted in millimetres and then displayed in metres.

What is the correct way to:

1. Check what geometric unit the modeler is currently using for the geometry (e.g. mm vs m), and
2. Change the geometric/modeler unit (or rescale an existing model) so that a value like 0.15 is treated as 0.15 m and not 0.15 mm,

without manually breaking the unit conversion factors in the Quantities and Units Manager?

Hi,

The unit is defined on the coordinate systems you use. In your case you XYZ as coordinate systems; then the unit by default it will be the unit consider in this coordinate system (by default it will be mm instead of m). Then if you want to change the unit, you need to change it in the coordinate system you use to create (import) your device.

Thanks.
